ECONOMY

A mediated agreement will likely involve a fraction of the cost of an adversarial litigation in the courts.

Human Relations / Injuries: Courtroom outcomes are always unpredictable. Mediation is a way for a family, an employer, a business, or a neighbor to resolve a dispute or potential lawsuit, in a timely fashion. Mediation offers flexibility, control and privacy to the disputants. YOU are an active participant in deciding what will be a fair outcome.

Marital mediation: In an adversarial system such as divorce, you may be involved in ongoing court hearings, interrogatories, depositions, discovery petitions, ad nauseum. If custody of children becomes an issue, you can add $10,000 or more to the cost, and add months or years to the process.

With a mediated focus on cooperation, not competition, your dispute resolution cost is reduced by as much as 75%; you can save thousands of dollars, and the pain of un-needed conflict. And, on average, a mediated resolution - whether it be reconciliation or divorce - is resolved within a matter of weeks.

Parties to mediation always have the option of leaving the mediation and pursuing court remedies. Parties to mediation may stipulate to Federal Rule of Evidence 408, thereby making those communications not admissable at trial.

*Actual fees will vary, depending on the case.
